  1. Annual roll-over. If you're 30 mil under the cap in 2018 then ur cap bumps up 30 mil in 2019. Your 2018 cap number has non bearing on your cap space in 2020 though. Yeah i think we only have like 3 corners on the roster. only the top 51 count against the salary cap. UDFA's probably don't even count towards the cap. A lot of the borderline roster players have no bearing on salary cap if cut as well.
  2. Yeah - I think we brought in a bunch of young guys to hopefully take the next step. I think he'll still be a starter though.
  3. These stats are kinda confusing... https://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/dl Looks like they ran at him less than the other side, and ran more effectively to the other side as well. He also seems to still generate pressure whether they were sacks or not.
  4. We have a ton of dead money this year already, and his cap hit doubles if we trade him/release him. Murphy only took 60% of snaps in his best year 2016. Having Lorax, Shaq, and Yarbrough gives us depth for injuries, as well as rotation to keep the best pass rushers on the field.
  5. I think they're being realistic. Lot of picks likely go into bringing in a QB, so its going to be tough to use one of the remaining ones on a depth running back who doesn't play special teams. They brought in Ivory to bridge at least 1 more year until they draft someone.
  6. Yep - http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2018/03/16/report-bills-to-re-sign-travaris-cadet-to-one-year-deal/
  7. Bringing back KW, having poyer/hyde, bringing in a guy like Murphy.. You're adding defensive leaders. Who's leading the O?
  8. yeah - but those aren't always going to be the keuchleys of the world. I want a real RT so we can cut mills. He stinks. That's as big a hole as MLB where there isn't even a current starter. I'd like to add some speed at WR and LB. DT they seem to be rolling with Vet's for now, and maybe add a late round flyer for rotational depth.
  9. This is the year of the QB. Next year i think we'll try to add more playmakers on both sides of the ball in both FA and the draft. You draft your guy, you take your lumps, you evaluate for 2019. If we make the playoffs or something? Gravy. But They can't say they expect it when they're drafting a QB and starting him right away.
  10. We have 4 and a fullback at the moment. Cadet and Jones fill roles of 3rd down pass catching depth, and Jones is a teams guy. I don't think its something we're looking at right now.
  11. They tendered Meredith but they added robinson, gabriel and burton. They probably have the cap room to match as well. Not a big fan of Butler, he's got rock hands. Maclin maybe? He's a cap casualty, and is probably still pretty quick. Eric Decker? His wife's hot so he'll fit right in. But from a football perspective, he played in a stale mularkey offense with a bad QB and put up OK numbers. He doesn't add a sorely needed speed element though. At the same token, there aren't any burners who can also catch and run routes available. Kinda slim pickins, which is why watkins and robinson got paid so much.
  12. Suh's available. Mathieu's available. Sheldon Richardson... There are still premier players available. A lot of corners moved pre free agency with Talib, Peters, Sherman, Worley, and Randall all moving teams. IMO Gaines was at that tier below Johnson and Butler, and the market shows that. There's a few other guys available, but he's probably better, and more likely asking for a bunch more money. Gaines wants more than Robinson got at 4yrs 20. Brown's an interesting case because of his fit with certain teams. Patriots won't overpay, but he'd probably fit in there pretty well as a deep lying cover 2 MLB.
  13. Still quite a few premier players out there without homes. Suh, Richardson, Mathieu,
  14. Star Trent AJ are the only ones that count. When we brought back KW i assumed we were out on this. Seantrel may qualify though as he got 1yr 4 mil... which is close to the 2 yrs 10 that AJ got.
  15. Sure does. I wonder if they're considering bringing back PB or gaines now.
  16. Cheap 2 year deal. If Benjamin works out, you cut maclin, if benjamin sucks, you have a backup plan. Either way look to draft one early in 2019.
  17. Watch the boise "highlights" he is missing open receivers by a LOT. Combine's easy - theres no pass rush in your face. I'm concerned about his pocket prescense as much as his accuracy. He seems to scramble into sacks and his mechanics result in a lot of missed opportunities. I personally don't know if we have the staff to bring along a raw rookie. Maybe Daboll? We'll see....
  18. Jets yes, Giants - maybe? A lot of people actually really like Davis Webb as a QB of the future. They had their top 3 WRs out, no run game, and a bottom tier Oline.
  19. If we can secure a comp pick it might be like... Siemian and a 2019 3rd/4th for a 7th round pick. Vs. McCarron for a 2019 3rd/4th If you have no interest in starting the guy at the end of the day, you could do worse for a backup.
  20. We also lost Wood and Tyrod so far this offseason. Even vet's like Brown and Glenn are no longer here. He'll help set the tone, get these new guys to trust the process while new leaders emerge in Hyde, Poyer, and maybe someone like Zay.
  21. Why? Savage couldn't do anything in Houston with Hopkins et al. Glennons 1 year in Chicago was without Meredith and white... and the depth behind them was bad. They may have had worse WRs than we did.
  22. I dunno - he had more tackles, and sacks than Washington and Thornton. Seems like he belongs in the rotation more than either of those guys at this point. We also just jettisoned Taylor, and lost Eric Wood to injury. This team can't lose 3 of their leaders in 1 offseason. Not a good look.
  23. Well Tyreke hill is their #1 weapon and he costs 704k this year. Hunt/Ware combine for about what we just gave Ivory. Rookie QB. They can afford to overspend on a WR.
  24. I'm saying like... everyone threw at the combine and everything they did was amaaazing. Darnold didn't throw so he's kind of been forgotten.
